Solr for WordPress requires WordPress 2.7 or greater and an instance of Solr 1.3 or greater. Installation is simple, just extract the plugin in your WordPress plugins folder, activate it, then point it at your Solr instance via the configuration page. From there, you can index all your pages and/or posts and you are ready to perform searches against your WordPress data.

This plugin assumes your Solr schema contains the following fields: id, permalink, title, content, numcomments, categories, categoriessrch, tags, tagssrch, author, type, and text. The facet fields (categories, tags, author, and type) should be string fields. You can make tagssrch and categoriessrch any type you want as they are used for general searching. The plugin is distributed with a Solr schema you can use. I will eventually package up a version of Solr configured specifically for this plugin. Until then, the provided schema will have to do.

Integrating Solr for WordPress into your theme is quite simple as well. The plugin provides two template tags, one for a search box and another for search results. For the search box, use the s4w_search_form() tag. For the search results use the s4w_search_results() tag. These template tags output valid xhtml that you can style with css.

This version of the plugin requires you to create your own search page template then create a search page called “Search” using this template. It also requires you to manually update any search forms to search against the search page you just create (“/search/”) and putting the query parameters in the “qry” parameter. In future versions it will completely replace the standard WordPress search functionality.

By default, facting is enabled for the category, tags, author, and post type. Faceting allows your user to drill down into the search results filtering on values of the particular facet. The category facet can be treated as a taxonomy as well.

I have been using your Plugging, it works great, we just created a auto suggest on the search page too, now is there a way to autoindex?? I mean a PHP script that I can put in a Cron job or something like that?.. any light on this will be appreciated
